Dachshund means Badger dog and please don't say "doxin". it's more like Dax-hoond. (the a like in "America")

goldeng0rl :

it's because it's the German word Dachs (meaning badger) and Hund (meaning dog) put together

It’s not. Please. It’s German. It’s pronounced as it’s spelled in German pronunciation. Dachs Hund. Daks Hoond.
